LEARNING / PRACTICAL PATTERNS
Common Examples
24 examples. Choose a pattern, understand its effect, then adapt the signal.
Before you use an example
Replace My_API_Key with your key label and adjust symbols and amounts. Unless stated otherwise, these examples assume USDT linear futures in one-way mode. Check your exchange’s support and order limits in Exchange Quirks.
Each code window is one message. Windows labeled as separate alerts must be sent separately.
Quick Start

Timing and execution
Waits are fixed delays. A single wait accepts up to 24 hours. The examples with 5-minute to 1-hour waits are accepted by the engine. They do not wait for fills, and the backend’s slow-execution warning does not cancel the block.
The HTTP response can time out first. TradingView waits 3 seconds; Signal Factory waits 20 seconds. Cross-region forwarding and proxies also have response limits. An accepted execution may continue after a timeout: check Execution History and the exchange before resending.
Long waits are not durable scheduling. They run in the current server process; a restart can interrupt the remaining commands. For hourly or daily actions, use separately scheduled alerts. The timing examples show the command sequence, not a guarantee of uninterrupted execution.
Check each result. A command failure can leave later commands running. Settings, entries, cancellations and protection are separate requests; a time delay does not confirm their success.
Read the size before the leverage
A % amount uses total USDT balance; %% uses free USDT balance. Setting leverage alone does not multiply either amount. For a new position, 25% notional with a 2% stop distance gives an illustrative loss of 0.5% of that balance, before fees and slippage. A stop is not a guaranteed loss cap.
